Thanks for the information. Very informative. Hopefully
we will get the data prior to the blackout. I took the
liberty of passing this information on to the 'Destination
Space/ Final Frontiers' message board. Hope you don't mind.

Thank you Dana and Neil...sorry I hadn't time to post this to here since I just finished my first 12 hour shift, updated info, anyone's help in spreading the FACTUAL data and operational parameters about this effort is more GREATLY appreciated and helpful than you can know-thanx:
Someone else said somewhere else:
It is not the job of NASA to give "credibility" to the "Artificiality
Hypothesis". They will, in time, provide proof, one way or the other.
rhw:
Actually it is. It most certainly and ABSOLUTELY is the provenance
and purpose of NASA to [ give "credibility" to the "Artificiality
Hypothesis" ] It's in their charter.
Dr. Philip Christensen has authority and custody over a NATIONAL
ASSET that belongs to the TAXPAYERS of the United States. Like
President Bush's current custody of the White House, George doesn't
have title and deed to the property. Neither does Dr. Christensen.
THAT is a very important, valid, and pertinent point all too often,
too many 'forget'. Spacecraft are NOT the permanate personal toys of
the Principle Investigators anymore than George can tear down a few
walls and remodel the White House as he pleases.
The THEMIS camera on board the Mars Odyssey spacecraft has the
ability to acquire TRUE COLOR images of the surface of Mars as it
would appear to the human eye, AND additionally, acquire a 9 band
infrared spectrum image of that same area at the same time, in real-
time. In fact, the April 12/13 (which was it really?) 2002 Cydonia
image HAD been acquired by ALL five ( 5 ), repeat ALL 5 ( FIVE )
visable light bands by the sensor of the THEMIS camera. Now,
apparently, only ONE (1) of those bands was 'commanded' to be sent to
the internal bus on its way to the CPU and on-board RAM storage for
transmission to Earth. Which one was it, IF-big IF, that was the
case? I sure would like to know WHICH of the single bands was used
to produce the April 12/13 Cydonia image release located here:
themis.asu.edu/zoom-20020413a.html
As a result of finding further information on the technical
capabilities of the THEMIS camera at:
mars.jpl.nasa.gov/odyssey/pip/2001MarsOdyssey-PIP2.pdf
It has become clear that my open challenge to Dr. Christensen:
members.tripod.com/rhw007/open_challenge_to_dr_phil.htm
may have already occured, except that not ALL of the information
acquired at the time ( when was the image acquired ? we'd like to
know NASA ) was released to the media and the taxpaying public, nor
to those of us who are truly interested in this enigmatic area.
Here is a PRIME image of the famous D & M pyramid and the Cydonia
Face and in further study and homework we learn that a full five
color visable image AND a 9 spectrum ifrared image is available ON
THE SENSORS at the SAME TIME as this Odyssey space craft is flying
over the most interesting landscape on the planet, in near-perfect
lighting, and ONLY ONE (1) , repeat ONLY 1 ( ONE ) sensor bank
was 'commanded' to be 'read' by the onboard
computer???????????????????????
C'MON ! ! !
I will only 'presume' that IF, and HOPEFULLY, ALL the bands were
commanded to be read, AS IS POSSIBLE, for this image; that the
withholding of this information is 'political'. If that is the case,
then we should do all we can do to peacefully change this political
conundrum. Because if ALL the bands were NOT commanded to be read,
then that is one wasted wonderful oppurtunity to really show us all
out here the FULL capabilities of this instrument in a landscape that
has attracted more of humanity's attention on Mars than any other.
THAT would be a shame. Sort of like letting George gut the White
House for an indoor baseball field.
